How to explain it… how to explain it. Trying to tell someone about this sort of thing is just not all that easy. It's a tough idea to wrap one's head around. Here, I'm going to use Michael's words to explain it to you: "When you're burned, you've got nothing. No cash, no credit, no job history; you're stuck in whatever city they decide to dump you in. You do whatever work comes your way and you rely on anyone who is still talking to you: a trigger happy ex-girlfriend, an old friend who used to inform on you to the FBI, family too (if you're desperate). Bottom line, until you figure out who burned you, you're not going anywhere."
See, if you're a superspy and a burn notice gets put out on you, you're in deep trouble. Deep trouble. As USA's excellent spy dramedy, Burn Notice, proves though, burn notices can result in awesome for the television viewer.
We here at Blogcritics like nothing if we don't like awesome, and so we're going to be launching — not for the first time — a Burn Notice giveaway. However this time, we're going to be doing it because Burn Notice is launching its third season this month. The goodness starts Thursday June 4 at 9pm. Or, as the promotion-types would say:
Burn Notice is back at an all new time, 9pm/8c! Season 3 picks up right where season 2 left off with Michael swimming in the Atlantic. Michael emerges from the water free from interference by the organization that burned him. He's not under their protection, either, and is under investigation by the police. He gets out of prison with help from his old friend, who has a job for him: extraditing a thug who's displacing landowners in a Latin American country. Join fans on the official site and on Facebook.
So, as I was saying, we're launching a giveaway. We're giving away not one, not two, but three Burn Notice tote bags. How great is that? No? Did I forget to mention that those tote bags are full? Each tote bag contains: a Burn Notice Season 1 DVD, Burn Notice Season 2 DVD, Burn Notice Frisbee, Burn Notice Suntan Lotion Pack, Burn Notice t-shirt, and Burn Notice novel. Now you're excited, aren't you?

Friends of mine rave about this so so I'd love to see what all the hype is about. Since there's never really anything good on TV during the summer, this would be ideal.
